Laurie Hardin: Little Penrod Lumina Pumpkin

Monkey-Cats Studio

These are the reason for "Monkey-Cats" Studio receiving the name. Pretty cute when they were kittens but they are now 9 years old, still think they are kittens and try to fit in the same spaces on my studio table. For some reason these two have very long tails like a monkey and received the nickname monkey boys from my husband. We are sure they can swing upside down by those tails! Their real names are Jake and Elwood, after the Blues Brothers, because they try to do the right thing but they are just naughty.

Little Penrod Lumina Pumpkin

I really need to get to the studio so this will be short and .....sweet?!! Below is Little Penrod Lumina Pumpkin with his Boo Bucket, Willard. Little Penrod is related to the Lumina Brothers of the past postings, but he has a little more "refinement" due to his upbringing and education. I think you can see it in his appearance.

Little Penrod wears a celestial star hat with copper glitter trim, a Halloween orange jacket with white piping and a black scalloped-edge cape with a star motif to match his hat and star button on his jacket. You can tell this little pumpkin attended Halloween prep school.

Below is a close-up of Willard on the Boo Bucket. Even Willard wears a bow tie to go out trick or treating!!

That's it for today. Little Penrod bids you a good day and wishes you spider hugs and kisses until tomorrow!

Have a great day everyone!!

Laurie

Thank you for stopping by...and Penrod thanks you too.

Sonia,
This little figure does have personality...I just wish he wasn't so fond of spiders and bats.

Have a great day you two!!

Pea,
I'm sorry you didn't know about the Halloween Prep school...all really good ghoulies go there. Actually my dreams are relatively normal...at least I think they are (giggle)!

Hi Lori, thank you for stopping by!

Pam,
Thank you for stopping by and Little Penrod is so excited you like his looks...a bit of a metro-sexual that little guy!!

Thanks for stopping by Peanut! Have a great week!

Back to work for me...overcast so taking photos will be a pain but I'm hopeful so keep your fingers crossed for me!
